OK I know I'm being a cheapskate but what's the cheapest price so far? I know it's only £8 and some change on Amazon but I wanted to go and buy on the first and I don't want to spend £19 if it's only a tenner in a some shops.

They'll throw it on a cheapie bin at Tesco, but not bother to send a single copy to Canada before June 14th?

Print's dying for a reason.

(Yep. Fully banging on the 'damn North American delay!' drum now.)

Can't believe I've just saved £15 off the list price. Thanks for the tip, chrisno1!

And the winner is Tesco. None of the books had a sticker but it came up as a fiver so I snapped it up. Thanks for the tip.

I picked up a copy from Tesco on Friday. I didn't even know it was out until I saw it sitting there on the shelf. Amazing that it's being sold so cheaply.

I already posted this on another thread. But for those of you living in Canada (and presumably the US) Walmart is selling the book at 40% off the Canadian cover price of $29.99. It came to a little over $18 with tax.
